This song was made for a 12 string, and I can attest to the response and sound when performed on one...This is the way I play it. I am the only one to blame for this Some how it all ends up the same Soaring on the wings of selfish pride I flew to high and like Icarus I collide With a world I try so hard to leave behind To rid myself of all but love to live and die To turn away and not become Another nail to pierce the skin of one who loves More deeper than the oceans, more abundant then the tears Of a world embracing every heartache and can I be the one to sacrifice or grip the spear and watch the blood and water flow (to love you) (To need you) (To love you) Take my world apart I am on my knees (to need you) Take my world apart Broken on my knees......... All said and done I stand-alone Among remains of a life I should not own It takes all I am to believe In the mercy that covers me And did you really have to die for me? All I am for all you are cause what I need and what I believe are worlds apart………And I pray (To love you) (To need you) take my world apart I am on my knees (To love you) (To need you) Take my world apart broken on my knees On my knees I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost Wipe away the crimson stain and dull the nails that still remain More and more I need you now. I owe you more each passing hour The battle between grace and pride I gave up not so long ago So steal my heart and take the pain, wash my feet and cleanse my pride Take the selfish take the weak and all the things I cannot hide Take the beauty take my tears, this sin soaked heart make it yours Take my world apart, take it now, and take it now (Chorus plays on top of this) Serve the ones that I despise and speak the words I can't deny. Watch the world I use to know fall to dust and go away I look beyond the empty cross forgetting what my life has cost Wipe away the crimson stain and dull the nails that still remain So, steal my heart and take the pain, take the selfish take the weak And all the things I cannot hide take the beauty take my tears take my world apart Take my world apart And i pray, and I pray And I pray Take my world apart Take my world apart Cause I am on my knees
